Number 50 August 2011 Page 3 Message from the Director Dear supporters, Incredibly, this is the 50th edition of the Bulletin and, to celebrate this, the front cover features photographs of 50 war memorials we have helped through our grant schemes over the past 14 years. The Bulletin has been keeping members and supporters up-to-date with the work of the charity since the first edition in 1997 and it remains a vital tool in spreading the word about our work to protect and conserve our war memorial heritage. The Trust staff are reminded daily of the continuing importance of war memorials to a wide variety of communities and so, to mark this, this 50th edition of the Bulletin contains articles which show how communities today continue to engage with their war memorials and recognise their ongoing significance. Sadly, engagement continues, at times, to be negative with our war memorial heritage subject to vandalism and acts of disrespect. We were therefore pleased to learn from David Burrowes MP that a campaign he has been running to encourage sentencing in such cases to take account of the fact that a war memorial is involved has won support from Justice Minister Crispin Blunt. Mr Blunt has written to the Sentencing Council to ask them to consider amending their guidelines to include war memorial desecration as a factor when considering appropriate sentencing. War Memorials Trust continues to be active in In Memoriam 2014, our partnership with SmartWater, to offer greater protection to war memorials across the UK to deter theft. You can read an update on this project on page 5. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome the many new members who responded to the special report on war memorials and War Memorials Trust in the Daily Telegraph on Saturday 2nd July. We were delighted with the response and welcome those who have joined us to work for the protection and conservation of war memorials in the UK. We hope you find our Bulletin interesting and draw the attention of both new and old members to a forthcoming members event. Details of a talk by our Trustee Gavin Stamp are given on page 5. A big thank you also to our many members who have responded to the recent direct mail appeal seeking support for our Learning Programme for young people. We have appointed a Learning Officer who will join the staff in August 2011 and further details of this Programme will appear in the next Bulletin. We have been delighted with the positive response to this Programme and look forward to working with young people to create a greater understanding of our war memorial heritage. War Memorials Trust is delighted to have been given the opportunity to broadcast the BBC Radio 4 Appeal on Sunday 13th November. Some of you may remember we did this in 2006 and raised nearly £9,000. We hope this year to increase this and further details about the broadcast will appear in the November issue of the Bulletin. We are pleased to introduce our 2011 Christmas card shown below right. It is early to be thinking of Christmas but as our next Bulletin will not reach you until November we do not want to leave it too late to let you know about the card. Purchasing will support the Trust in its efforts to preserve war memorials across the UK. Full details of how to order can be found on page 16. Finally, you may be interested to know that the Trust is having an international impact. We were recently contacted by American War Memorials Overseas. When looking at their website I thought it would be interesting to see what information they provided about the maintenance of war memorials. It was very flattering to read the first source of information they suggested as “War Memorials Trust in the UK has a remarkable website that is a treasure of information on war memorials.” Anyone interested in finding out more should visit www.uswarmemorials.org. Best wishes, Frances Moreton Page 4 War Memorials Trust Bulletin War Memorials Trust news AGM and war memorial walk On Monday 4th July War Memorials Trust AGM took place. Held at the Imperial War Museum, the event was attended by around 30 members who joined staff, Trustees and Area Vice- Patrons. Vice-Chairman of Trustees Peter McCormick reviewed the Trust’s activities over the last year in the absence of Chairman Algy Cluff, who unfortunately had to offer his apologies to the meeting. Treasurer Roger Bardell reported on the financial performance of the charity during 2010 and into 2011. He was followed by staff who delivered short presentations on key aspects of the Trust’s work. Frances Moreton spoke about Learning, War Memorials Officers and In Memoriam 2014, WMT Vice-Chairman of Trustees Peter McCormick Nancy Treves discussed membership and Regional Volunteers, delivering the annual review to attendees © Emma Nelson highlighted some interesting conservation cases WMT, 2011 and Amy Davidson presented details of some of the grants awarded in 2010. After the presentations attendees had the opportunity to discuss issues and meet other members over refreshments. The minutes of the meeting have been distributed to attendees. If you would like to obtain a copy please contact Claire on 020 7834 0200 or 0300 123 0764 or [email protected]. Prior to the AGM a walk took place. Starting outside the Hog in the Pound pub near Bond Street station, the walk progressed along Davies Street and towards Grosvenor Square. The Square is home to the American Embassy and has a 9/11 memorial, a World War II memorial to the Eagle Squadron and the new statue of Ronald Reagan, which had been unveiled that morning. Walk attendees at the 7/7 memorial in Hyde Park The group then walked to the Animals in War memorial at © WMT, 2011 Brook Gate. This presented an interesting opportunity for the Trust’s Conservation Officers Amy Davidson and Emma Nelson to discuss some of the common conservation issues affecting war memorials. They highlighted some of the problems obvious on this war memorial, which are found in many of the cases which the Trust assists with, such as pollution from the surrounding traffic. Those attending the walk then had the opportunity to ask questions and discover more about how the Trust would encourage local communities to deal with these types of problems. The group then walked through Hyde Park, viewing the memorial to the 7/7 bombings on the way.

  • Politics, Protest, Emotion: Interdisciplinary Perspectives
    4 Memory and history on the 2016 CND march in London David McQueen, Bournemouth University The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) rally in London on February 27th 2016 was described in the media as ‘the biggest anti- nuclear weapons rally in a generation’,attracting tens of thousands who marched from Speaker’s Corner to Trafalgar Square. Memories of the enormous 1981 and ‘83 demonstrations in London, when at least a quarter of a million people poured into Hyde Park,haunted the day. That was at the height of tensions between the US and NATO allies and the Soviet Bloc over medium range ‘cruise missiles’. These tensions, declassified documents show, almost led to a pre-emptive nuclear strike in 1983,triggered by a large-scale U.S. military exercise in Eastern Europe called Able Archer. The events were recently fictionalised in the German television series Deutschland 83, which continues to promote the Cold War myth that members of the peace movement were naive stooges of the Soviet Union, heavily infiltrated by Warsaw Pact spies (gay spies at that).Some things never change – and history tends to repeat itself when it comes to protest movements and how they are represented (when they are represented at all) in the media. 18 Politics, Protest, Emotion: Interdisciplinary Perspectives Credit: © David and Isobel McQueen Emerging from Paddington Station on a grey wintry Saturday with my daughter, Isobel, who was going on her first political rally, we spoke to two elderly protestors, a husband and wife from Wales. We could tell from their badges that they were also heading to join the march which began at Marble Arch.

ISBN-10: 0-9876055-0-X ISBN-13: 978-0-9876055-0-4 The Future is Open to the Past Public Memorials in Evolving Urban Landscapes Quentin Stevens RMIT University and University College London This paper examines decision-making about the location and design of new public memorials in three major world cities: London, Berlin, and New York. All three cities have remained foci of political and economic power over several centuries. The historical development of each city has been marked by numerous shifts in the spatial distribution of political power and its representation, and the installation of hundreds of memorials to a plethora of subjects throughout their built fabric. Each new memorial in these respective cities must find a place within a complex constellation of existing forms, settings, and values, and each new work also contributes to an ongoing redefinition of priorities regarding collective memory and identity. In each city, commemorative works have to fit within a constantly evolving landscape, potentially undermining their long-term effectiveness as markers of memory.

  • Animals at War Author: Sharon Mohrmann Subject & Grade Level Elementary 4Th Grade
    PROJECT TITLE: ANIMALS AT WAR AUTHOR: SHARON MOHRMANN SUBJECT & GRADE LEVEL ELEMENTARY 4TH GRADE CLASSROOM PRACTICE (DOCUMENT #1) 1. HI Overview & Teaching Thesis: Animals at War is designed for upper elementary school students in 4th/5th grade. Students will be introduced to the kit with a story about a young child who uses a service dog in her everyday life and why this animal is so important to her survival. Young children are fascinated with animals and superheroes and this unit combines both of these interests into one. Animals played a key role during World War I and World War II and were used in a variety of ways. Countless animals provided tasks that would not have been possible by humans and their stories have been recorded in pictures, journals, legal documents, letters and newspaper articles. During this kit, students will work in pairs or small groups to use a variety of primary source documents to research 8 different animal breeds. Through this research, they will discover how the animal served, when they served, and how they were remembered. Interactive global mapping is embedded in both lessons to enable the students to see the impact that the wars had on the entire world geographically. 2. Suggested Grade Level and Length of Activities: 4th /5th Grade: Two (1 hour) lessons 3. Significance & Relevance: Most students in American classrooms get their first exposure to World War I and World War II in 4th or 5th grade. This kit has been created with preselected materials that are sensitive to the developmental age of 10-12 year olds.

  • Animals of War
    ANIMALS OF WAR In Great Britain, Remembrance (or Armistice Day) is observed by a tribute of silence on the 11th hour, on the 11th day, of the 11th month, when hostilities of the Great War ended. The Great War was followed by the Second World War - a conflict that resulted in the deaths of up to 60 million people. This month the Learning Curve are remembering the huge sacrifices made by thousands of animals during the First and Second World Wars. The ‘Animals in War’ Memorial in London’s Hyde Park is inscribed with the words ‘They had no choice,’ yet they unreservedly applied their strength, perseverance, loyalty and intelligence in a way that influenced the course and success of the British and Allied war effort. Please read on to discover some of their incredible stories, with information about the PDSA Dickin Medal, the Animals in War Memorial and the history behind the purple poppy. Lest We Forget Animal Stories Dogs The dog's innate qualities of intelligence and devotion were valued and used by the forces in conflicts throughout the century. Among their many duties, these faithful animals ran messages, laid telegraph wires, detected mines, dug out bomb victims and acted as guard or patrol dogs. Many battled on despite horrific wounds and in terrifying circumstances to the limit of their endurance, showing indomitable courage and supreme loyalty to their handlers. Rob a War Dog Rob, a¬ Collie (War Dog No. 471/332 Special Air Service) was awarded the PDSA Dickin medal on 22nd January 1945. Citation: “Took part in landings during North African Campaign with an Infantry unit and later served with a Special Air Unit in Italy as patrol and guard on small detachments lying-up in enemy territory.
